Lyrics

[Intro]

Whoa

Never again will she get the best of me

Never again will she take away my freedom

And we won't forget the day we fought

[Verse 1]

For the right to be a little bit naughty

Never again will The Chokey door slam

Never again will I be bullied, and

Never again will I doubt it when

My mummy says I'm a miracle

Never again

Never again will we live behind bars

Never again now that we know

[Chorus]

We are revolting children

Living in revolting times

We sing revolting songs

Using revolting rhymes

We'll be revolting children

Till our revolting's done

And we'll have the Trunchbull bolting

We're revolting

[Chorus]

We are revolting children

Living in revolting times

We sing revolting songs

Using revolting rhymes

We'll be revolting children

Till our revolting's done

And we'll have the Trunchbull bolting

We're revolting

[Verse 2]

We will become a screaming horde

Take out your hockey stick and use it as a sword

Never again will we be ignored

We'll find out where the chalk is stored

And draw rude pictures on the board

It's not insulting, we're revolting

[Verse 3]

We can S-P-L how we like

If enough of us are wrong, wrong is right

Every word N-O-R-T-Y

'Cause we're a little bit naughty

So we got to stay inside the lines

If we disobey at the same time

There is nothing that the Trunchbull can do

She can take her hammer and S-H-U

You didn't think you could push us too far

But there's no going back now, we

[Chorus]

R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N

Revolting times

U-S-I-N-G (Songs)

U-S-I-N-G (Rhymes)

We'll be R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N-G

It is 2-L-8-4-U, we are revolting

[Chorus]

We are revolting children

Living in revolting times

We sing revolting songs

Using revolting rhymes

We'll be revolting children

Till our revolting's done

It is 2-L-8-4-U

[Outro]

We are R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N

Never again will she get the best of me

U-S-I-N-G, U-S-I-N-G

Whoa

We'll be R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N-G

Down, down, down

It is 2-L-8-4-U, we are revolting
